Title: Vascular implant, delivery device and medical apparatus
Inventor: ZHAO HANYI
IPC: A61F2/91
Filed: 2020-06-26
Abstract: A vascular implant, a delivery device and a medical apparatus are disclosed. During delivery of the vascular implant, the vascular implant is maintained axially stationary relative to a delivery shaft (4), thus preventing the dislodgement of the vascular implant and making the delivery more stable. The vascular implant includes a first engagement structure, and the delivery device includes the delivery shaft (4) and a chamber. The delivery shaft (4) includes a second engagement structure configured for detachable retaining engagement with the first engagement structure. Both the first engagement structure and the delivery shaft (4) are configured to be received in the chamber. When the first engagement structure and the delivery shaft (4) are received in the chamber, the first engagement structure is confined by the chamber and thus remains in retaining engagement with the second engagement structure, thus axially locking the vascular implant to the delivery shaft (4). When the first engagement structure is removed from the chamber, it is no longer confined thereby and is thus detachable from the second engagement structure, thus axially unlocking the vascular implant from the delivery shaft (4).

Inventor: MENDLER EDWARD CHARLES
IPC: F02B33/44
Filed: 2020-07-21
Abstract: According to the present invention, the impeller inlet of a turbocharger compressor receives intake air from an inner channel and an outer channel. The outer channel is pressurized with an electrically powered secondary compressor. The pressurized air in the outer channel flows into the impeller near the outer wall of the impeller inlet. The pressurized air next to the outer wall of the impeller inlet prevents backflow of air out of the impeller and thereby prevents surge and enables the compressor to produce high boost pressures under small mass flow settings. Only a portion of the intake air is pressurized with the electrically powered secondary compressor, and the boost pressure of the electrical compressor is only a fraction of the turbocharger compressor's overall pressure ratio. Consequently, only a small amount of electrical power is required to drive the secondary compressor, thereby enabling conventional 12 volt batteries to be used to power the electrical compressor for almost all automotive applications.
